Since the counter arguement and perspective essay I don't really think much has changed. I think once I did the counter arguement I was ready to change my question all together then I was kind of talked off the ledge by my teacher. It was really hard for me to take another perspective on my topic and not adopt that view. I am a passionate guy so by taking the time to write about something it makes me fully engulfed in that view. It really helped me to see a different view but just assured me of my topic and the question I wanted to research.
The article I got from the Journal of Sort Management written by Semoon, Chang, and Shelia Canode talked about the economic impact major college football has on the program. If a smaller school like Alabama State goes to play the powerhouse Alabama they have the potential to make $450,000 just for showing up. They don't even have to win the game. The kind of money that college football brings to a school has such a huge impact on all of the other sports as well. The football program itself can support some of the other less popular sports. That in itself is a ton of pressure for a school to win. I used this in my essay to explain why winner is important not just to the football program. All of that pressure falls on the coaching staff and the athletic department. The major key term I got from this was economic presssure.
